Include Business Card in an Outlook Message

Have you ever wanted to include your own or someone else’s BusinessCard in an E-mail Message in Outlook 13?

That can be easily done! All you have to do is to follow the steps below.

First we must create a new E-Mail Messageas shown in the image below, in order for us to Include a BusinessCard in the message.

Once the message is created, we must select the Insert tab and from the left of the ribbon we locate the area named Include as shown in the image below.

From this area of the ribbon, we select the command BusinessCard in order for us to attach an electronic business card in our message.

Once we select the command BusinessCard, the drop down menu appears as we can see below. Because I have created a BusinessCard for myself, I just select it from the drop down menu, and straight away it is inserted as an Attachment and in the Body of the Message, as shown.

If we want to Include a different BusinessCard in our message, we then have to select the command OtherBusinessCards from the BusinessCard drop down menu. Once the OtherBusinessCards command is selected, the InsertBusinessCard dialog box appears as we can see in the image below. In this dialog box, we can select the drop down menu at the right of the command Look In:, in case we need to look into a different E-MailAccount, or Look In our LinkedInContactList. Then all we have to do is to select the Contact that we want, and then we have a preview of the specific Contact. Once we have the selected the Contact that we want, we just press the OK button which is located at the bottom right corner of the InsertBusinessCard dialog box.
